Some monitors contain a built in webcam. If your monitor includes a webcam they may be able to see you on that webcam unless you turn it off. If there is no webcam built in to the monitor they cannot see you unless you add a webcam to your computer. If you do not know if the monitor came with a camera, you can usually tell if there is a webcam as there would be a very small hole, about the size of a pin hole, in the top center of the trim around the screen. Sometimes there are 2 or 3 of these pinholes if the monitor has a mono or stereo microphone in addition to the camera. A lot of desktop monitors and most laptop computers include webcams now which can be turned on automatically when using programs like "Go To Meeting" and "Skype". If this feature bothers you, a piece of electrical tape over the hole will prevent anyone from seeing you. When you went them to see you remove the tape!
